Abstract

The present invention relates to the distributed optical fiber sensing technology field, in particular to an optical frequency modulation and direct detection-based Phi OTDR and a sensing method thereof. The optical frequency modulation and direct detection-based Phi OTDR comprises a signal generator, a single frequency tunable laser, a pulse generator, an optical amplifier, a narrow band filter,a circulator, a sensing optical fiber, a photoelectric detector and a signal acquisition and processing system. According to the present invention, by carrying out the sine optical frequency modulation on a light source, the Rayleigh scattering light intensity at the positions of the sensing optical fiber generates the periodic modulation, thereby suppressing a coherent fading phenomenon in a PhiOTDR system. Meanwhile, the periodic variation of the Rayleigh scattering light intensity realizes the effect of a carrier wave, an external signal is loaded in the carrier wave, a Rayleigh scatteringsignal is detected by the photoelectric detector directly, and the frequency information of the Rayleigh scattering signal can be obtained by the Fourier transform, thereby sensing the external signal. According to the present invention, a system sensitivity decline problem caused by the coherent fading is avoided, thereby guaranteeing the good signal to noise ratio at all positions of the wholesegment of sensing optical fiber.

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of distributed optical fiber sensing, in particular to a phase sensitive optical time domain reflectometer (ФOTDR) and a sensing method based on optical frequency modulation and direct detection. Background technique [0002] The phase-sensitive optical time domain reflectometer system has great application value in the fields of perimeter security, seismic wave detection, oil exploration and distributed acoustic sensing. Compared with other distributed optical fiber sensing systems, ФOTDR has comprehensive advantages in signal-to-noise ratio, system complexity, response frequency, detection sensitivity, etc., and has received high attention in the field of high-sensitivity dynamic distributed measurement. The intensity of the Rayleigh scattering signal is directly detected by photodetectors, and the frequency information of the external signal can be obtained directly through Fourier transform. This soluti...
